Payload capacity: Includes 150 lb driver? Fuel? Or neither?

Read all the old threads I could find. I'm hearing many different explanations about how I should use the payload sticker on inside driver door jamb. Does it include 150 lb driver and full tank? ...

The camper load sticker in the glove box on the other hand, should add up to the payload sticker. BUT you need to add # of seat belts times 154lbs to the camper load to get total payload.

iirc, on all my trucks the camper # is a little chunk lower than payload #.


As noted, my camper has been hoards of 900 lbs lower than payed. Ie 6 seatbelts times 150 = 900. Hence why camper is less than payload by as you say, a Chunk if you have a 6 passenger crew cab.
